Visitors are responsible for knowing the current rules for each museum.  Some museums now require advance tickets in addition to showing the museum pass. If you have specific questions about reserving admission tickets please contact the museum directly and not the Library.

​About the Program
Make a reservation for a pass on the day you wish to pick it up. Passes are loaned for three (3) days with no renewals. 

Passes for two different museums may be borrowed at one time by any Glen Ridge Library card holder, ages 18+ with an account in good standing, e.g., no overdue material or outstanding fines/fees. 

Fines and fees can be paid online through your library account ($0.50 convienence fee applies). Passes returned past their due date will incur a $5.00 per day fee (max $20.00). Unreturned passes will be charged the replacement fee of the location in question. 

​A deposit is no longer required when borrowing a pass.

Passes must be returned to the adult department desk during operating hours. Do not return a pass to the book drop or a different library. Please note that reservations do depend on the previous borrower returning the pass on time.

How to Pick Up and Return
Reserved passes may be picked up at the Adult Services Desk on the 2nd floor. Passes may not be returned in the book drop.

**IMPORTANT TO KNOW**

• If you are unable to borrow a pass that you have reserved, you must cancel the reservation in advance. You may cancel a reservation through this system or by calling 973-748-5482.  
• Failure to cancel a reserved museum pass or returning a museum pass late will result in a  flag on your account which may impact your ability to borrow passes in the future. 
• The Library reserves the right to cancel a reservation if a museum pass is not checked out within 24-hours after a reservation begins.
